[television is just wrong]

This suprised me.

Wasn't Susan McDougal also involved in some fraud regarding over seas adoptions? If I remember correctly, she who broke some law, but was given a pass. Was it Clinton who fixed it?

There are many couples with would make great parents, but don't have millions. They have difficulty adopting while the Paula Poundstones and Michael Jacksons are given a pass.

Aside from the alleged fraud, this has the aroma of a "trophy child" adoption, a "mommy dearest" acquisition. I don't like cynicism, but Hollywood tends to drive me to it.

Think the adoption provider realized that one of Angelina's many tattoos says "That which feeds me destroys me"? Hardly an appropriate motto for a would-be adoptive parent.

Angelina Jolie is one of many, many celebrities who bought a baby thanks to fame. I will put good money on little Maddox being addicted to heroin by 2015.

The sisters operated an agency called Seattle International Adoptions, which paired hundreds of children from Cambodia

I am aware of this agency. However we used New Hope Child and Family Agency (affiliated with Crista Ministries),(206) 363-1800, for our adoptions.

Lauryn Galindo, 53, and her sister in Seattle, Lynn Devin, received fees of $10,000 or more to arrange adoptions

That's cheap compared to the prices agencies charge for US children. They know they have prospective parents over a barrel and can bilk them out of their last dime. Worse than used car salesmen and lawyers.

[what's up]

Jolie is a UN shill.

Jolie like the others doesn't care. She will continue to feign compasssion for the underdog. As long as these people travel in style to see the other side and the rules don't apply to them; they will live out their fantacies. I say rock their boats until reality hits them smack in the face.
